We are so fortunate to have several State Parks in this part of North Central Florida.
Rainbow Springs State Park is one of the closest to our house.
The campground is right near the Rainbow River with it's sapphire colored water.
So I walked down to the river a couple of times each day to see what birds and wildlife I might see.
It was a beautiful walk with palm trees along the path.

We've camped there twice now and one thing we learned is how different each experience can be, depending on where you are camped.
The first time we stayed there, we backed into our camp space and opened the back on the van up, pulled the screen down and our view from the back and from every window, was the forest.
That's my kind of camping!
I love to be surrounded by nature.

The next time we camped, our space had other campers close by, even behind us. It was interesting but I gave higher ratings to the secluded campsite.
This is the second campsite and it still looks beautiful!
One of the unusual sightings was the scuba diver.
You can see he has a float with a flag out front to signal that he is underwater to boats and kayaks.
It sure is fun to research State Parks in Florida and get away for a few days!
